Summary: The Matrix takes cinema to the next level
Review: All I could think of after my first viewing of "The Matrix" was... WOW! The special effects (very often immitated) were like nothing I had ever seen before, but what blew me away even more was the plot. Usually in an effects bonanza movie the plot and acting are just something to fill up the spaces between explosions, but "The Matrix" really has it all.Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, and Carrie-Anne Moss all turn in amazing performances as Neo, Morpheus, and Trinity. They play three human resistence fighters on a future planet Earth dominated by thinking machines that have enslaved humanity in the most insidious way possible, by creating the matrix... a prison for their minds. Dazzling martial arts, dizzying special effects, a plot that questions our entire concept of 'real', an awesome soundtrack/score, and great acting all made "The Matrix" a cultural phenomenon that hasn't been seen since the original "Star Wars" over twenty years ago. Science Fiction has been taken to a new level, and I can't wait to see how the series continues on in the upcoming movies. Again... WOW.

Summary: Stupid, dull and pointless movie!
Review: This movie had really had no plot to it. This is one of the most over-rated movies ever made. The movie was hard to follow and had a lame story line. If it were not for the special effects this movie would have been worse that it really is.

Summary: Impressive and intriguing
Review: Matrix is a wonderfully built movie that makes the audience think and expand their thoughts on normal everyday life. It delivers a fine performance with Keanu Reeves as the star Neo, who may be humanity's last hope. The film has suspense, action, special effects beyond anything you've ever seen before, and even humor. The plot twists and turns, but the viewer is able to catch up if they get lost. Such a creative film is a very impressive piece of cinematography. Never has the audience seen such an array of mind blowing special effects and such an intriguing plot. The Matrix movie is about the world as we think we know it...but in fact we are all, all of us humans, being used as slaves for the machines that have taken over our world. Neo is trying to figure this out, and then he is told the truth. The world we think we are living in, is actually a wreck. We are living in a sort of dreamworld. The movie is complex. It has bizarre ideas on things we wonder about everyday: even deja vu. The Matrix is a compelling, wonderful movie that you will enjoy as well as think about for days after. It is rated R for a lot of violence, but teens should be allowed to see it. Enjoy!

Summary: The Matrix
Review: WOW! I never understood the story maybe because I was just too young, but after seeing the movie for the 5th time or so it finally hit me like a book! The story line is like nothing else I've ever seen and the graphics and special EFX now that is definatley also something I havent seen in my life! I absolutley love this movie the two most important things are there! Story+Action! and what a story and action! 5 star movie! Even though the movie is a little bit long, its something you can watch over and over without getting bored! Screw star wars or watever everyone thinks is unforgettabley the best! Because the matrix is No.1! When it comes down or what should I say UP to the acting performance's keanu reeves and the rest of the cast perform wonderfully and I MUST pull over to mention that "Hugo Weaving" who plays the top agent (Agent Smith) controlling the matrix which is everything, gives a wonderful villian acting performance that I love, No doubt my favourite character is Agent Smith. You cant go through the movie without thinking "How cool are the agents"! Later in the movie keanu reeves's character get some more character and shows us that wonderful black outfit! Best movie fight ever is to be expected between Agent Smith and Neo.
I love the way Agent Smith calls Neo "Mr. Anderson" it sounds so cool coming from him and it pisses off Neo! Oh well yep, THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE EVER!

Summary: Only an idiot would say this was revolutionary
Review: Yes yes this movie was execellent, the first time. Then I watched it again, after getting it on dvd and almost returned it. Maybe its just me but Keanu Reeves can't act for nothing. And what is it with people and bullet time? Everyone says its so new and has never been done before. Well, I hate to break it to you all, but it has. Pick ANY movie directed by John Woo, and while you won't get as much bullet time, you will get some. To give a more obvious example, the movie IRON MONKEY that was chorieagraphed by the same people, and had as much bullet time as the matrix, well that movie was made and released in China 5 years before this movie was made. The story is also kinda hard to follow the first time. You will need to see it at least twice.(that is not a bad thing) One thing I will say that I like about this movie are the general special effects. And all 3 actors who play the agents do a great job. There is also this extreamly pathetic love story, that probably would have made the movie much better had it not been there. The special features of the DVD are, well....not so special. Its besically the Wachowski brothers talking about how they think they no it all. The musical score on the other hand is really cool. Don't be fooled by how everyone says this movie changed the way movies are made. If it changed anything, it changed the fact that we don't need big time famous actors to make a decent movie, just a lot of stuff blowing up and lots and lots of special effects. I mean, I don't even think Trinity looks that pritty. If you want this movie, go ahead and get it. But rent it once or twice first and you probably wont be watching it again.

Summary: The best film ever
Review: This is a great movie about an inner journey; Where Neo wants to free his mind. Neo is the chosen one of course, because it is himself its all about. The ship is his body, Morpheus is his common sense, Trinity is his love and he got one corrupted guy in him who is called Cypher and he wants to give up and stop struggling. The one who's looking into the matrix is his conscious and he has a hard time to see what's going on in this world because it's so much information in this world who hypnotizes the human mind. Most of the people is not unplugged, with other words hypnotized, and he is struggling very hard(against Agent Smith, his speech is slow - and has an hypnotic effect - to not fall into hypnotic stage, suggestions, manipulation, projections etc.)And then we got the Oracle (subconscious) who knows everything about him of course, she shows him the way where he has all the old agreements in his life to understand a certain (western) reality.
He just wants to free his mind, where he is a prisoner and has boundaries into time, agreements, opinions and properties.
